  When you are faced with the unthinkable, this is the book you can turn to.
  
  Suicide is both baffling and devastating in equal measures, and it can affect any one of us: one person dies by suicide every 40 seconds. Yet despite the scale of the devastation, for family members and friends, suicide is still poorly understood.
  
  Drawing on decades of work in the field of suicide prevention and research, and having been bereaved by suicide twice, Professor O''Connor is here to help. Written with empathy and understanding, When It Is Darkest untangles the complex reasons behind someone taking their own life and dispels unhelpful myths around suicide.
  
  For those trying to help someone vulnerable, it will provide indispensable advice on communication, stressing the importance of listening to fears and anxieties without judgment.
  
  And for those who are struggling to get through the tragedy of suicide, it will help you find strength in the darkest of places.
